1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Introduction: Osimertinib remains the standard first-line therapy for patients with advanced Case presentation: A 69-year-old-female with a long-standing history of a seizure disorder was diagnosed with stage IV EGFR exon 19 deletion positive lung adenocarcinoma. After a failed trial to wean the patient off phenytoin, osimertinib at a dose of 160 mg in combination with phenytoin was recommended based on existing clinical guidelines. She achieved a partial response and continues with stable disease for more than 32 months from initiation of osimertinib. Additionally, she tolerated osimertinib well with minimal side effects although with persistent dyspnea of unclear etiology. Conclusion: Our case illustrates that 160 mg of osimertinib administered concurrently with a strong CYP3A4 inducer can be given safely and with retained efficacy in treating CNS metastatic EGFR-positive non-small cell lung cancer.
